This was due to death of one of its greatest leaders, Aurangzeb early 1709. Leadership was seemingly absent as the last of the old and experienced leaders passed on and the new leaders took over. One of the new leaders, referred to as the nawab of Bengal took control of the British port and ordered for payment of increased tax from the British. This move was obviously advised by the French and was directed towards killing the British trade in India. However, Britain refused to comply with this order and instead countered this move. They sent a huge group of their military, comprising of English and Indian soldiers who had defected their authorities and joined the British, to battle it out with the nawab military, which were assisted by the French military (Higgins & Pollard, 2006). The British conquered and executed the nawab and replaced with a leader of…...

Manufacturing was completely transformed, along with the society which arose up around it. And both the production of agriculture and the steam powered engines of ships and locomotives, allowed for an ever increasing population to be fed and to travel and communicate much easier. In other words, the Industrial Revolution transformed manufacturing and agriculture, transportation, which allowed for an increase in population and the creation of a new urban-based society.

Industrial Revolution
Human Rights and the Industrial Revolution

The era of Industrial Revolution is the period in history which fundamental altered many aspects of society. ith the introduction of new systems that developed with the mechanization of various agricultural processes as well as the introduction of textile manufacturing. The specialization of labor to support these processes had many implications for the culture and the daily lives of the individuals living through this period. The major industrialization begins in Great Britain during the late 1700s and early 1800s and the effects of this industrialization world over a very short period of time. ith industrialization a new dynamic emerged between labor and the owners of capital. This power struggle was initially presented by the owners of capital having massive amounts of power in which they abused in many cases. Therefore, the industrial revolution had a dehumanizing effect from the perspective of viewing people as…...

The pioneering spirit of colonialism and of man's ability to make advances in stages of life primarily assigned to nature -- such as the aforementioned innovations in electricity and magnetism -- were all championed by the Enlightenment and carried over to the field of industry.
Additionally, the Enlightenment helped provide some of the political context which helped to create environments in which the scientific and cultural achievements of the Industrial Revolution could take place. Principles of the Enlightenment heavily influenced the founding fathers of the U.S. government -- who then went on to form a country that utilized several of the technologies and principles that the Industrial Revolution went on to be known for. Additionally, social-political upheavals throughout Europe -- most notably the French Revolution -- were spurred in no small part by the feeling of unrest and discontent with tradition that the Enlightenment was credited for. This sentiment played…...

Industrial Revolution in America
Countless historical events and cultural impacts have influenced the future of the American culture and society since the period of the Industrial Revolution. Drastic changes were brought to men, transforming their ways of life into convenience and improvement through the advance discoveries of the geniuses of the past and the revolution of diverse industries. Without the era of the industrial revolution, our lifestyles today, in terms of the technology that we currently have, will not be as progressive as they are. Essentially, the industrial revolution had built the history of technology.

The era of the industrial revolution have witnessed changes in the different aspects of society and human life. In America, changes were seen in politics, education, transportation, arts, entertainment, literature, economy, etc., as they were influenced by economic changes from mainly agriculture into manufacturing and production of goods. The economic and social structure of the United States…...

For the overall country however, it meant an incremental desire for high productivity levels and an openness to new techniques (Wallace, 1989).
The colonies and the British fleet

Aside the status and movements within agriculture, another major part was played by the colonies. Great Britain had numerous colonies across the globe, meaning that it enjoyed not only labor force, but also financial and material contributions. England had fought countless battles and with every victory, their prize was more land. Aided by its geographic position, Great Britain controlled the trade handled by its colonies. The most remarkable examples are offered by its colonies in North America, which, by 1780, were the recipients of half of the entire English exports. In the immediate aftermath however, Great Britain turned its attention to the colonies in South America and India and soon came to control these regions as well. The income generated by the trade…...

The overall shift of the population was also significant -- in pre-industrial England more than three-quarters of the population lived in cities; by mid nineteenth century over half of the population lived in cities (Ashton, 49). The United States experienced similar urbanization as a result of the industrial revolution. In 1860 there were only 9 American cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants but by 1900, such cities had increased to 38 (Porter, para on "Growth of Cities")
The effect of the Industrial Revolution on individual members of the working class was also significant. It resulted in loss of the traditional family structure, as many single male members of rural peasant families moved to cities in search of jobs in the factories. Most of these factory workers had to live and work in appalling conditions, away from their families. The monotony of the specialized and repetitive work in mechanized factories, which…...

Neolithic Revolution' (also known as the 'Agricultural Revolution') occurred 10~12,000 years ago when people moved from social systems based on hunting and gathering to more complex communities dependent on agriculture and the domestication of animals.

Industrial Revolution

The names of British factory cities would soon spread around the world symbolizing the peak of industrialization: Liverpool, Leeds, Glasgow, heffield, Birmingham and especially Manchester. In order to get a better image of the city's growth and development, we will turn to statistics once again. In the 1770s, Manchester had a population of about 25, 000 and by 1850, less than a century later, its population had increased to over 350, 000 people. However, this population boom brought about the dramatic worsening of health conditions in urban areas as work conditions and long hours put a toll on working people who were sometimes as young as eight years old. In addition, bad sewage disposal, air and water pollution as well as the diseases which resulted from this insalubrious environment caused an increase in the rate of infant mortality and shorter life expectancy. Along with poor health conditions, the toll…...

Industrial evolution and Political Systems
Justify your choice of the two most significant social consequences of the Industrial evolution.

The industrial revolution brought with it a mix of influences, some of which were good and yet others were negative to the society. The major consequences of industrialization that are of interest here are the change in the social structure of the society and the heightening of social unrest around Europe.

As Gregory Clark (2007) indicates, the industrial revolution brought about the development of small centers around the industries where the workers would report on a daily basis with ease. These centers later developed into towns and cities with majority of the dwellers being the people working in the industries and having migrated from their rural homes. This changed the social structure of the European community as many moved from the rural areas leaving the young and the old to stay back there and…...

Even before the team engine developed and the railroad infrastructure was created, ritain benefited from a large number of internal rivers that facilitated a proper transport infrastructure through the use of internal river channels. During a time when the road infrastructure was completely underdeveloped in all countries, the fact that so many river could be interconnected greatly increased communication between the various parts of ritain.
Additionally, ritain also saw the development of some of the most important technology during this period of time, which facilitated the industrial revolution. Technological instruments such as Watt's steam engine allowed an immediate increase in productivity and efficiency.

There are certainly several political and military reasons that are worth enumerating. At the historical moment we could estimate the beginning of the modern economy in ritain, somewhere in the 18th century, the other main economic powers that would dominate the continent in the 20th century were either…...

ith families and neighborhoods splitting along urban and rural lines, improvements in transportation were necessary for personal and commercial reasons. The completion of the Cumberland Road -- the first national highway -- and the transcontinental railroad, in addition to the Eerie Canal's opening, helped solve the transportation trouble (Kelly).
Although these industrial advancements progressed the United States, insuring its position as an economic and technological leader, social reforms also occurred because of the new focus on industry. omen were given new opportunities to work outside of the home through the jobs provided in the industrial revolution, and a middle class of working people was created.

Industrial Revolution One major effect of the First Industrial Revolution is that the workers of America were leaving their home, rather than working in and around the home, to completed their work. This usually meant the worker of the family (usually the man of the house) going toa factor or another building other than the home to complete work. Women usually stayed home and took care of the children and the house. This leads to the other major impact, whereby women were relegated down to subservient and owning lesser status than the man and certainly less than the near-equal status they enjoyed during the agrarian times in the United States and before that when Britain, Spain and France controlled what is now the United States.
The huge increase in productivity and the ability to create and sustain revenue led to an economic revolution that allowed for the building and the leveraging of…...

Business and SocietySince the industrial revolution, business has become somewhat more depersonalized. One of the complaints of Marx was that Industrialization had divorced the laborer from the fruits of his labor: he was no longer connected to the actual good effect of accomplishing something but was instead reduced to a cog in a pin factory, using Adam Smiths example of the division of labor in Wealth of Nations. Society, however, became used to the idea of the division of labor, and, having no other options, workers accepted their inhuman roles in the factory world. Today, one sees the same thing going on in Amazon factories where workers complain of inhuman conditions (Sainato, 2020).In other ways, business has changed so that labor itself is completely offshored. For instance in America, industries like the steel industry have been nearly totally decimated because steel production has been offshored to other countries. China is…...

As to the climate, as a result of huge factory smokestacks belching out black smoke from the burning of coal, the atmosphere slowly began to change and severely affected rainfall patterns and created variations in the temperature of the air. This was the beginning of what we now call acid rain, a combination of water and carbon dioxide which slowly pollutes everything it comes in contact with, such as aboveground water sources (lakes, rivers and wells) and even the land itself in the form of run-off which eventually ends up in agricultural areas where food is grown and harvested.

With earth's landforms, the excavation and removal of coal in such places as England and the Eastern United States greatly devastated the natural landscape by leaving behind immense sections of land stripped bare and left wide open to further erosion by rain and wind. Since iron ore, copper and tin were three…...

Industrial Revolution
It has been called the "Western Miracle" and the "European Miracle," but it is commonly known as the Industrial Revolution. During the later half of the 1700's and to the beginning of the 20th century, The European continent and North America went through some amazing changes. These changes did not involve politics, but centered on economics and a new way of business in the U.S. They would also bring a new way of life for the middle and lower classes. These changes are no referred to as the Industrial Revolution, and it brought forth a new way of producing goods. It changed the face of our nation from and agricultural emphasis to one of industry and mass production of processed goods, which in turn changed how the country would look at work places and how workers were treated.
